Hello, everyone! As you know, we are approaching the final month of the story. Because of that, I would like to make a very special request for you all! In order for the book to have a star rating, 20 different users need to leave at least one review with a rating on the main page (unfortunately, more than one comment from the same person counts as just one in this case). But the good news is that we only need SIX RATINGS to achieve this! ^^ So, if you like this story and haven't rating it yet, please consider it, because receiving a rating will really help the book attract more readers! And a big thanks to Lhyn, Irene Kibanya, Shanna-deen Knight, fizztae45, Arabella, Moonlit tales, Lin Que, Kathrin Köhler, Shelyn, tina, Sabrina Philemon, Gabrielle, Blue_Hisbiscus and KayJay, for having already supported the book in this way!
“Daddy! Daddy! I drew a picture for you!” Millie whimpered, jumping from side to side on the sofa with the paper in her hands, seeming to think she should get Massimo's attention, even though he was still on his cell phone screen, right in front of them "That way you won't forget me..."“Honey, we already talked about this.” Alice tried not to laugh, kissing her baby's cheek “Daddy only will be gone for less than two days and then he's going to come home. It's not that long. He has important work things to do in Italy…”“But he promised we would travel together…” Millie cried, heartbroken “He said he would show me what Italy is like and we would eat ice cream…”“And we will, piccola.” Massimo sighed, looking sincerely guilty, which only made it much funnier for Alice “I’m sorry for not being able to keep my promise. But when I get back, I'll prepa
Hello, everyone! It's so bittersweet to give these thanks at the end of August, because tomorrow we'll officially enter the last month of Massimo and Alice's story. You've been so amazing that it's going to be a little sad for me to finish this project, but I hope you all like what I have in store for the future ;)Thank you so much to Lhyn, Irene Kibanya, Shanna-deen Knight, fizztae45, Arabella, Moonlit tales, Lin Que, Kathrin Köhler, Shelyn, tina, Sabrina Philemon, Gabrielle, Blue_Hisbiscus, KayJay, Rachel, essstj, Guille C and ah!, who left ratings to help the book, so soon after my request ^^ Thanks to you, now we only need TWO MORE RATINGS from TWO USERS WHO HAVEN'T RATED YET to get an official star rating! It's going to be really special for me, because this might be my first book to achieve that!For September, I'm going to try to have TWO CHAPTERS PER DAY, so I can fulfill my promise of finishing the story by the end of the month (I'm expecting that to happen on the 25th or 26t
“Are you pregnant?” Ruby's question reverberated through Alice's mind again and again, causing the air to freeze in her throat.“That…” she panted, feeling that she would certainly have fainted right then and there, if she hadn’t already been sitting down “This is impossible…”“Are you having cravings for foods you don't like, excessive tiredness and haven't used pads in a while?” Ruby snorted, slightly amused “Are you sure your nursing skills aren't a little rusty? Even I know what that means.”“Wait, this… This could be something else, right?” Lucy took her hands, nervously, seeming to want to comfort Alice a little and get her out of that catatonic state “I mean, have you and Massimo been using any kind of protection lately?”“We… We talked about it once or twice, but…” Alice stammered “We came to the conclusion there was no need. We knew very well he and I would not have any diseases and… God, more than one doctor told him the shrapnel from the accident had come… Too close.” she sw
“The area is free and the last person to enter the room was the maid to change the sheets and bring your dinner, Mr. Bianchi.” the head of security said, as he followed Massimo’s wheelchair down the hallway “Would you like us to check anything else?”"No. You guys already did a good enough job today, preventing Emma and her henchmen from getting into the building and disrupting the signing of the papers.” Massimo sighed, feeling exhausted not because of how his meeting had gone, but simply because he had become too unaccustomed to returning to the cold businessman the role of CEO required of him “Now, I'm just going to get some rest. while we wait for the flight. Has the tower notified you if conditions have improved?”“They had improved earlier, but now they have gotten a little worse.” the man replie
“Oh, there you are, Mrs. Bianchi.” Henry Churchill, Massimo’s head of security smiled as he found Alice at the beginning of the hotel corridor, extending his hand to take the single small piece of luggage she had brought “Welcome. I fulfilled your request and kept your arrival in secret from Mr. Bianchi. I’m sure he’ll understand my reasons, right?” the poor man tried to hide his nervousness under a gentle smile.“Don’t worry, Henry.” Alice laughed “I promise I'll explain to him that it was all my idea. You are an excellent professional, the best my husband could have chosen to protect us, after the incident that happened to me and my daughter. You can be sure that Massimo will not be angry just because you accepted my request.” she calmed him, her eyes turning alone towards the door ahead, the only one at the end of that long corridor
“What the fuck did you say?” Massimo growled furiously, making Amber swallow hard “You and that bitch drugged me?!”“That…” Amber stuttered, dragging herself across the floor to get away from them “Of course not. Do you think I would be capable of something like that? I was just saying that you never gave in to your attraction to me, not even when you were drunk...”“You're the same woman who just admitted you used one of your boyfriends to get into a married man's room, Amber.” Alice reminded her, disgusted “So, just like you told the truth about Kendra's plan that brought you here today, you better open your mouth about that too. Or I will be sure to cause irreparable harm to the one you love most: your face.” She threatened, making her shiver.
Massimo had a faint memory that, when he didn't yet know Millie was his daughter, he thought it would have been nice to be able to go through all the stages of a child's birth and be a father from the moment his baby was in his wife's womb. But, after he chose to be Millicent's father and soon discovered that he actually was, Massimo pushed those thoughts away, until he forgot about them completely. What would he gain by whining in the corners about not being able to place another child in Alice? He was already the father of the most precious little girl in the world. His wife had already given him the best gift possible. Their family was already complete and he didn't need anything else.However, upon seeing the blue stick there in front of him and finally realizing that it was a positive pregnancy test, Massimo felt something burn inside him, although his di
“Are you enjoying the view?” Massimo’s question was the only thing capable of snatching Alice’s view from outside the huge window of the hotel restaurant, where they were.“Yes.” she smiled, feeling almost like a child in an fun fair, as she looked at the beautiful view of Milan again, feeling almost as if she had stepped into a painting “I don't think I've ever seen such a beautiful place…”“Wait until I show you our house in Sicily. I’m sure you’ll spend hours just looking out from the rooftop balcony.” he laughed, moving closer so he could kiss her neck “You know, it's not too late for a quick tour before we go. Dante will be in the USA soon, anyway. We don’t need to waste precious time from our first trip together waiting for him here…”
